Intro

Sometime ago, i built some easy android-app to read RSS feeds and post something on a provided url. Basically, i already knew how to build an android application using eclipse. But that just a start! Real android-apps-development, involving on several libraries and it takes hours to resolve required dependencies without a tools to work on resolving those dependencies. Either you lost on finding the dependencies required or your apps getting too big when your apps ready to use. That's why MAVEN comes in hand.

Why MAVEN ?

Maven had the technology to split your application into several libraries and adding dependencies unto those libraries. That way, you won't be confused or lost in space when trying to note down your application dependencies. That's why maven should be REALLY considered when you building a large application. Well, what i mean large is an application which is more than hello world :-D
